Frontier Homestead State Park hosts Iron Mission Days
By Ryan Paul
Frontier Homestead State Park, in partnership with the Cedar City Corporation, celebrates the founding of Cedar City with a day of hands-on activities designed to honor the spirit of our community and those that created opportunities for our growth. Enjoy the cool, crisp fall air Nov. 3 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. as Frontier Homestead hosts its annual Iron Mission Days.
Pioneer activities, crafts for kids, and living history demonstrations will be available. Sheriff Shawn will be here with his gun-spinning skills, and living history demonstrators will showcase frontier medicine and Civil War-era weapons. Park staff will offer tomahawk throwing and baking in the wood-fired oven, and our museum blacksmith, a local flint knapper, and the Sagebrush Fiber Artisans will be on hand as well. Additionally, visitors will be able to dip candles, pitch horseshoes, create rope, ride in a Model-A Ford, make rag dolls, and of course get a slice of birthday cake.
The cost is $5 per family. Admission is free with a museum membership. For more information call (435) 586-9290 or visit frontierhomestead.org. Frontier Homestead State Park is located at 635 N. Main St. in Cedar City.
